Now that the convention is over, the hotel is putting the their furniture back where it normally is located. Looking over the balcony into the atrium, I saw two of the hotel's employees carrying a couch from the Crows Nest on the third floor down to the second floor. Many people found those stairs made them nervous, I wouldn't recommend carrying a couch.

Later on I saw that they were taking the long way around the atrium, and then using the elevator to move furniture down to the second floor.

Sometimes the shortest route is not the fastest.
